So my new book is out this Friday, and the last few weeks has been a whirlwind of behind the scenes activity trying to get everything finalised. Every time I think I've finished the list, a new list of things to do pop up. Anyway I thought I'd give you a little insight into how this book came about. I was visiting a cemetery with my family, and as we drove out past the old worn gravestones from people who died 80, 90 years ago, my mind thought. I wonder if there's still anyone around that misses them. That morphed into, I'd read somewhere that people will take the names of the deceased to create false identities. And then both those ides merged into, what if a con artist took one of those names and the spirit of the person came back looking for it. All of this happened in the space of about thirty seconds. So now I had a general premise, but how to weave that into a story. I went home and the next day broadly sketched out a plan, which eventually morphed into Murder in Paint (A hitchhiker novel). I'm hoping if it's received well to turn it into a series. Now onto the next one.
